The BYOD movement has serious implications for IT professionals, such as managing applications on user devices and security implications. Do you think BYOD is a net positive or a net negative for the enterprise? Explain your answer.
What will be an ideal response?
Systems analysts need to know about the role of apps and the effect of the “bring your own device” (BYOD) movement in the enterprise.
BYOD can negatively affect the enterprise by introducing security risks, by increasing incompatibilities among employee devices, and by reducing productivity as employees are forced to maintain and update the software on their devices themselves.
BYOD can positively affect the enterprise by lowering capital costs for employee equipment, by off-loading tasks from the IT support department and therefore letting them focus on more high-level concerns, and by increasing productivity as employees use devices they are familiar with from outside usage.
